Spicy smash burger
Priscilla P.

If you're into the shake shack style type of burger, you will enjoy the burgers here! They are "smash burgers", thinner patty and not super greasy, served on a soft potato roll. The chipotle sauce is similar or the same as the sauce from namkeen. They are generous with the pickles and the grilled and fried onions complemented the burger well. The serrano peppers in the spicy smash burger were HOT, exactly how I like it! The staff are always friendly here and the restaurant has a nice calming cafe feel. This is my new "go-to" for burgers in the area and I would highly recommend!

Felt misled by the reviews here. Not necessarily a terrible experience by any means, but certainly didn't experience the hype of this place. Have come here a few times and have generally had the same experience each time. Very small inside with limited seating, so I'm guessing most people tend to opt for take-out which I haven't done as I've dined-in each time I came here. Having tried several items, the food is just okay in my opinion, with the Dewani Waffle being probably the only item I would recommend. Although they always seem to be out of the sweet mascarpone every time I've been, which to me is unusual. In general if you're coming for food, I would recommend the waffles as they have been done well each time I come. I do like the berries and ice cream they provide, as they go well together. Service was disappointing. Every time I have been met with indifference/rudeness, and they seemed annoyed when I would even ask questions about the items. Also as a warning, there is no bathroom even for paying customers, or at least I was refused one when asking.

Great option for Indian fusion right by Namkeem. I had originally learned about this place from a Yelp elite event that I had attended and since returned a few times. Usually get the burger because it's very flavorful with the indian spices. The burger is quite juicy. I think a double patty is probably best, but even the single is decent. Tip: skip the fries and instead order a chicken tender from Namkeem to have on the side!

Dewani waffle paradise.

What's up Chatham NJ? Chashni is what up! You may just walk by this little gem on the way to Ward's Coffee, but stop in for lunch or dinner. Don't let the name or exotic ingredients put you off. But beware, though there's no signage and no one will tell you, you need to order at the counter then hope to grab one of the limited tables. Arguably the best waffles ever...Gulabi: pistachio, roes pedals, kulfi ice cream and a perfectly manicured waffle...same for the Dewani waffle topped with marscapone. And that price point...$10.00 what??? Amazing! And that smash burger? Totally on point and at $7.00...what?? That's what's up Chatham!

Butternut squash toast ( seasonal )
Sne G.

Honestly 5/5 - Food, Quality, Service & Staff The flavors speak for itself, I heard only great things about most dishes and had to try it for myself. Cannot wait to come back and try the chai and Gulabi waffle ! The anda waala burger was a flavor bomb, the butternut squash toast was sweet and savory !! Will come back again and recommend too.

I had the perfect waffle today. Crisp on the outside, tender on the inside. If you're a waffle fan, you should come here. You enter a small store front restaurant. They have about 6 marble bistro tables. Soft jazz plays, making it a relaxing place. I came early on a Friday morning and the place was empty. You order and pay at the counter and they bring the food when it's ready. My waffle and chai were made to order and were not only beautiful looking but divine tasting. I got the gulabi waffle - pistachio, rose petals, kulfi ice cream on a gulab jamun belgian waffle. The syrup was like the kind that drizzles over baklava. It was a light application, which was perfect because the kulfi ice cream with the syrup gave you a nice sweetness. The pistachios were ground to a fine dust and were lovely. Honestly the whole thing was perfect. It was more of a dessert but I'm a gal who eats cake for breakfast. I also had chai tea. It was good but I'm not a big fan of chai and won't comment further. I'll definitely return. I knew they'd be good bc the owner is the same as Namkeen, which is 2 doors down. Free parking on street and in lots behind the stores.

avocado toast
Ashley Victoria A.

i had the opportunity to dine here with a friend a few days ago & im still thinking about the avocado toast & cozy autumn salad- they were so yummy! we tried the avocado toast (a must try), cozy autumn salad (another must try), gulaba waffle, and the pear toast. i could definitely go with out the last two mentioned, but that's bc i'm not much of a sweet tooth- if you are definitely give it a try! the waffles paired really well the ice cream. i think the highlight of this restaurant for me was the bold cultural flavor profiles in each dish, no dish went unnoticed. the seasonings in both the avocado toast & autumn salad was out of this world. i live in linden & wouldn't mind considering the drive up there once in a WHILE to order both those items. the service was very prompt & the workers are kind. i will say the restaurant was a little smaller than i expected, but it made up for it in every dish we managed to try.

kulfi shake
Prerana D.

my fav spot in chatham for the kulfi shakes!!!!! i'm obsessed w them and it's the cutest spot for chai or food as well. chatham needed a place like this and it's in the perfect area near namkeen too! my photos are of the many times i've gotten it lol

Egg sammie
Rabeea C.

Chashni is the hottest Pakistani brunch spot in all of New Jersey. It's the Pakistani American fusion that makes this such a unique experience. Their desi omelet paratha is to die for. And so is the egg sammie and anday wala burger. The chai is the best I have had. And coffee drinks are very well crafted as well. They source their beans from SEY coffee.

Dewani waffle, really good!
Neelam P.

So happy to have another great option added to Chatham's Main Street. Same owners as the very popular Namkeen, Chashni dished out an excellent sweet waffle that my family used as dessert. The waffle was nice and fluffy, berries fresh, syrup not too sweet, and the marscapone was a nice touch. Some interesting sounding toasts are on the menu, as well as gulab jamun waffle which sounded very unique (but maybe too sweet for me). Also chai, coffee, and teas.

Gulabi waffle and hot chai
Kimberley W.

We ordered a hot chai, two classic smash burgers, tomato burrata toast and two waffles (gulabi, mastani). The food was delicious! My seven year old gave it a 100/10. The service was good. The food came to the table quickly. The ambiance is a cafe vibe which is cool for a quick bite to catch up with a friend, first date, or an informal business meeting. We will be back again!

Latte on the left, flat white on the right
Roxanne O.

We ordered an egg sandwich and a waffle along with a couple of coffees. The latte and the flat white were the exact same size, and the oat milk wasn't steamed well--it was a bit watery. The egg sandwich came out first, and then we saw that after the plate was delivered to the table, they started making the waffle. The egg sandwich was ridiculously oily, but after wiping some of it up, it tasted fine. The chicken on top of the waffle was basically a spicy chicken finger. Though everything tasted good, I felt like the attention to detail could have been a tad better.

Situated in a small shopping plaza about 10min drive from Short Hills Mall, you could easily miss…read morethe Crave & Co store front, but it's worth seeking out. Once you're inside it's a very beautiful cafe serving up healthy and flavorful options. We started with corn bites to share, they were like corn on the cob "ribs" style and had a nice kick to them. I ordered a Caesar salad and a short rib flatbread that was on the special menu. The salad was delicious with the perfect amount of dressing and the flatbread was yummy too. My sister got the chicken pesto sandwich which was messy but very flavorful and worth it! The fries the sandwich came with were amazing, perfect amount of crisp and potato. Mom got a Greek salad and that was great too. There was only one guy taking care of the tables and cleaning and he was very friendly and accommodating. We had a nice quiet lunch and were very happy with everything.

The sign on the wall says "What are you craving?"... having eaten here I'd say my answer is "not…read morethis restaurant." We stopped in for lunch, the space was crowded and the service fairly slow. People waiting for tables are awkwardly clustered at the door staring at everyone eating. The cesar wrap was unfortunate and had hardly any dressing. It was served warm which made the lettuce mushy and weird. The mushy lettuce wasn't a great mix with the unseasoned chicken. Not the worst sandwich I've had but far from the best. The verdict: mediocre

Nice boutique in the Bloomingdale's in the Short Hills mall. I was able to get all of the coffee I…read morewanted and get out of there pretty quickly. It's not a standalone store but they have a good variety. The only weird thing was that I mentioned that one of my Vertuo Plus machines was jammed and wouldn't lock. They don't have anybody there who can talk to you about it. Whereas at the Nespresso boutique in Paramus they do, but also her advice was to buy a Vertuo Plus that was on sale. I told her to add it in and she said oh, we don't sell it, you have to buy it at a Bloomingdale's register. That didn't make any sense so I didn't bother. If you just need to stock up on coffee this is a good place to go but if you are looking for more of the Nespresso experience, you might want to go to Paramus.

It's a nice store in Bloomingdale's basement. The people there are amicable, and they will assist…read moreyou with choosing the proper coffee for your machine. They will also explain everything about their coffee if you ask. I would return. They also gave me a sample pack and collection bag to return for recycling. I was able to choose four sleeves of Vertuo pods. I like it more than my Keurig machine for coffee since the Vertuo machine can also make espresso. If you don't have a coffee machine, I recommend Nespresso machines. And this small counter in Bloomingdale is just perfect. I can also order online and pick it up here also.
